A Township Tale is set in a medieval fantasy world where players band together with up to eight friends on a virtual server to take on professions and craft equipment while they explore the dangerous world before them, all in the immersive way that only VR can provide.
A Township Tale allows players to become master professionals in their new town by taking up the mantle of blacksmiths, woodcutters, miners, archers and warriors. Players can explore dangerous areas and recover crafting materials to improve their gear. With specialized weapons, leveling abilities and play styles, unique parties are formed to delve into the deepest reaches of dark caverns.
A Township Tale will be compatible with both Oculus Quest 1 and 2, with players able to buy the game and receive their own server along with 1,000 Talems (in-game currency) to purchase additional cosmetic items for their characters.
"From the moment the Quest was announced, the requests from fans started to roll in for a dedicated version of our game, even though the thought of delivering a world as expansive as A Township Tale to a standalone device seemed crazy," said Boramy Unn, game director, Alta. "We began the process last year, and now on July 15 we'll be launching A Township Tale on Oculus Quest, bringing to life a fantasy we've had since we were children: To truly embody the RPG characters we play in a fantastical world."
